Description Šimon Lukašík 2011-11-03 09:18:41 UTC
Description of problem:
Documentation for the following API calls

    schedule.listAllActions
    schedule.listArchivedActions
    schedule.listCompletedActions
    schedule.listFailedActions
    schedule.listInProgressActions

describes that "scheduler" field will be returned. However, that field
is not 100% warrant to be included in the result. Documentation should
describe it as (optional).

The "scheduler" field is not returned in the cases, when the scheduler of
the action is unknown (NULL). For example:

  - when auto_errata_update is on, and errata action is scheduled by
    satsync (see bug 653305 for more details).
  - when action is scheduled by activation key during kickstart with
    the feature called: "Delete the existing system profile and create
    a new system profile." (see bug 740306 for more details).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
RHN Satellite 5.3.0
RHN Satellite 5.4.1+
